3 Intrusion Control Panel Solution 64 Release Notes March, 2007 Release Notes for Version In the interest of ongoing product development and improvement, Bosch is proud to release software version 1.10 for the Solution 64 Security Control Panel. This document briefly outlines the new features and improvements added in this release. Please read in conjunction with the current installation manual and other addendums for more detailed information. To coincide with this release, we are pleased to also announce that Version 1.07 of our Solution Link Upload/Download software is now available. Version 1.07 includes increased functionality, as well as support for the additional features in the V1.10 Solution 64 release. Support for up to 3 x CM104 Zone Expanders Support for up to 3 x CM110 Output Expanders Support for up to 3 x CM120 LAN Power Supplies Full Area and Output Control via DTMF Support for up to 6 x PR100 Proximity Readers Added End Of Exit Beep when Part Arming Added Option to Arm All User Areas Via Prox Added Option to Expire PIN on a per User Basis Added Zone Trigger Delay Option Added Support For Remote Keypad Simulator 1) NEW Support For 3 x CM104 Zone Expander Modules. Version 1.10 includes support for up to three CM104-8/16 Zone Expansion modules. This allows zones to be located in four separate locations or buildings using individual modules which are then wired back to the control panel via the 4 wire LAN. All zones follow the global EOL setting in MENU regardless of which module they are on. i.e. If Split EOL is selected, then all zones will be configured for Split EOL. Zone numbering is automatically assigned by the panel during power up depending on the module configuration found. For example if Split EOL is selected and 3 x CM104 Zone Expanders are fitted, then Zones 1-16 will be located on the main panel, Zones will be located on CM104 Expander 1 and Zones will be located on CM104 Expander 2. ZONE CONFIGUR ATION TABLE Device Type Single EOL Alarm + Tamper Split EOL Solution 64 Panel RF Zones CM104 Expander CM104 Expander Any CM104 Expander number up to a Total Zones maximum Solution 64 Panel of 64 CM105 Expander zones CM106 Expander CM106 Expander N/A Total Zones If a mixture of hardwired and RF zones are being used, then it is recommended that you assign the RF zones to zone numbers above the maximum number of hardwired zones. In the above example you would assign the first RF zone to Zone 49 which would leave all 48 hardwired zone inputs free. If an RF zone is assigned to a zone which has a physical hardwired input then the RF zone will take precedence and the hardwired zone input will be disabled. At this time the panel supports either CM104 zone expanders OR CM105 zone expanders however is not possible to mix both types on the one system. See the zone configuration table for the various zone configuration options available. RF zones are available regardless of which hardwired zone options are used. 2) NEW Support For 3 x CM110 Output Expander Modules. Version 1.10 includes support for up to three CM110-4 Way Relay Output Expanders. This feature takes the maximum output capacity of the panel to 16 high current outputs. Outputs can be located in up to four different locations or buildings using individual modules which are then wired back to the control panel via the 4 wire LAN. This additional module support also provides for up to 6 external access control doors via the dual proximity reader inputs located on the CM110 Expanders. The CM110 inputs currently support the PR100 External Proximity readers which are compatible with the Proximity Keypads. The total number of access control doors now increases to 14. ACCESS DOOR T YPE / CAPACIT Y Firmware Internal External Total V or lower V or higher Output and Proximity Reader numbering is automatically assigned by the panel during power up depending on the module configuration found. Security Systems

4 For example if 2 x CM110 Output Expanders are fitted then Outputs 1-4 will be located on the main panel, Outputs 5-8 will be located on CM110 Expander 1 and Outputs 9-12 will be located on CM110 Expander 2. OUTPUT AND PROX READER MAPPING Device Type O utput Number Reader Number Solution 64 Panel 1-4 N/A CM110 Expander CM110 Expander CM110 Expander Proximity Readers 1-8 are reserved for Keypad Readers. External readers are addressed as readers 9 to 14. When connected to the panel using either dial up or direct connection modes, the keypad simulator option will be available via the Solution Link tool bar. The keypad simulator allows you to view any keypad on the system as well as perform any available keypad functions via the PC. 5) Output Polarities With Pre Delay. In earlier versions, outputs programmed with output polarity Low With Pre Delay and Open With Pre Delay did not function correctly. The output would operate after the pre delay time expired however the output would then reset rather than remain latched on. This operation has been corrected in this release. 3) NEW Support For 3 x CM120 Power Supply Modules. Version 1.10 includes support for up to three CM120-1 Amp LAN Power Supply Modules. CM120 modules can be located in up to three different locations or buildings to provide LAN voltage regeneration as well as supplying power to other modules, Intrusion Sensors, Door Strikes etc. The CM120 modules are designed to run off a standard plug pack transformer and include built in battery chargers suitable for charging 12V 7Ah batteries. As with all LAN modules, the status of the CM120 is constantly being monitored and reported to the control panel via the system LAN. MODULE CONFIGUR ATION INFORMATION Multiple module support requires that each module is set to a unique address. For example if a system has 1 x CM104 and 1 x CM120 installed, they should both be addressed as module 1. If an extra CM104 was fitted then it should be addressed as module 2. The panel will only look for new devices follwing a power cycle and only if the LAN is not secured. To add new devices, make sure the LAN is unsecured before powering the system down. Set the module Address DIP switches accordingly and complete wiring as per instuctions. Once complete re-power the system. To interrogate devices connected to the LAN you can use LAN Status command, MENU L AN MODULE ADDRESSING Module Nº SW 1 SW 2 SW 3 1 OFF OFF OFF 2 ON OFF OFF 3 OFF ON OFF Each different module type should be addressed starting at address 1. 4) NEW Support For Keypad Simulator Added Version 1.10 includes support for the real time keypad simulator. The keypad simulator is a new feature which can be accessed via the latest version of our Solution Link RAS software. 6) Battery Test On Arming Option. In earlier versions, the system would always perform a battery test on arming regardless of whether or not the Battery Test On Arming Option was selected. This operation has been corrected in this release. See MENU ) Outputs Programmed To Follow Chime Zones. In earlier versions, an output configured to operate when a chime zone was triggered would not reset if the chime function was turned off for that area while a chime alarm was in effect. This operation has been corrected in this release. See Output Event Type 30 - Chime Zone Triggered 8) Outputs Programmed To Follow Auto Arm Pre-Alert. In earlier versions, an output configured to operate when an Auto Arming Pre Alert timer was running would not reset if the Auto Arm Time was delayed buy a user. This operation has been corrected in this release. See Output Event Type 31 - Auto Arm Pre Alert 9) NEW Panel DTMF Control Functions Enhanced. In earlier versions, DTMF control functions were restricted to remote arming of the entire system only. Version 1.10 now includes comprehensive DTMF control of individual areas and outputs with full user PIN and TIMER GROUP access verification. Comms > Remote Access > DTMF Options MENU DTMF Arming Y 2 DTMF Disarming N 3 DTMF User Functions N 4 DTMF Quick Arming Y 5 Reserved N 6 Reserved N 7 Reserved N 8 Reserved N 2 Bosch Security Systems 3/07 FTR1.4

5 Unlike other systems, no additional hardware or modules are required for DTMF control. To configure the desired functions see MENU DTMF Options. See below for DTMF control operating instructions. 1. Once the panel answers the incoming call, if either option 1, 2, 3 or 4 in MENU is enabled, then the panel will play a short welcome jingle. You now have approximately 5 seconds to enter a valid PIN and log onto the panel. 2. Enter PIN followed by the # key. If the PIN is valid the system will respond with two short beeps. If the PIN is invalid then a single long beep will be heard. If a valid PIN is not entered in time, the panel will attempt to establish a modem connection as if connecting to the Solution Link software. If this happens you will need to hang up for approximately 60 seconds before trying again. 3. Once validated, the following commands can be performed. See the table below. If no keys are pressed for 20 seconds then the panel will play the exit jingle before terminating the session and hanging up. Pressing ## at any time while connected will cause the panel to terminate the session. DTMF CONTROL FUNC TIONS Operation Command Response Quick Arm All Areas 0 + # 2 x Beeps Log In OK USER PIN + # Welcome Jingle Log In Failed USER PIN + # Long Beep Turn Area ON 1 + (Area Nº1-8) # Turn Area OFF 1 + (Area Nº1-8) # 2 x Beeps (Low - High) 2 x Beeps (High - Low) Turn Output ON 2 + (Output Nº1-16) # 2 x Beeps (Low - High) Turn Output OFF 2 + (Output Nº1-16) # 2 x Beeps (High - Low) End Session # + # Exit Jingle DTMF EXAMPLES Each example below shows the log on step for clarity. In practise is only necessary to log on once per DTMF control session. To turn Area 1 ON enter the following # = Log ON # = Arm Area 1 To turn Output 10 ON enter the following # = Log ON # = Turn Output 10 ON To turn Output 12 OFF enter the following Solution # = Log ON # = Turn Output 12 OFF If the DTMF Quick Arm option is enabled then it is possible to remotely arm all areas without logging onto the panel. Simply enter 0 + # following the welcome jingle. Make sure that the phone being used to remotely control the panel is set to transmit DTMF tones when keys are pressed during the call. This option is disabled by default on some phones. 10) Send Test Report Menu Changed. In earlier versions, a Guest User or a Non Master Code User could initiate a test report transmission via the hold down function on the keypad yet they had no access to this option via the menu tree. (See MENU 5-9-0) V1.10 now allows Guest / Non Master Users to access this menu. 11) Random A.C. Reports Option Corrected. In earlier versions, the option to randomise A.C. Fail reports (MENU 7-3-0) when selected would only randomise across a 120 second time window instead of a 2 hour time window. This has been corrected in this release. This option can be used to minimise the incoming traffic to the control room in the event that power is lost to large parts of a suburb due to catastrophic equipment failure, storm damage etc. 12) Delay Zone Reports Option Corrected. Each zone can be individually programmed for delay reporting in MENU When enabled, the zone reports will be delayed by the time period set in MENU This option can be set to allow a user to enter their PIN and disable the alarm report in case they have caused a false alarm. In earlier versions, the Delay Zone Reporting Option ignored the delay time and reported the event immediately. This has been corrected in this release. 13) Alarm Memory For Keypad Generated Alarms Added. In earlier versions, when a keypad generated alarm such as a keypad fire, keypad medical or keypad panic alarm was triggered, the keypad would only display the alarm event on the keypad while the sirens were running. In this release, the system will display alarm memory for all keypad generated alarms. 14) Alarm Memory For Telco Line Fail Alarms Added. MENU includes an option for the panel to generate an alarm should a Telco Line Failure occur. This option is enabled by default and will only trigger the alarm event if the panel is in the armed state. Bosch Security Systems 3/07 FTR1.4 3

6 In earlier versions, a Telco Alarm Fail would generate the alarm as programmed however no alarm memory would be displayed on the keypad once the sirens timed out. In this release, the system will display alarm memory for Telco Line Fail alarms. 15) Bypass Reports For Non Burglary Zone Types. In earlier versions, the Report Bypass option in MENU for Non Burglary Zones like Keyswitch, Display Only and 24hr Non Burglary was being ignored and no bypass / un-bypass reports would be sent to the control room for these zone types. In this release all zone types will follow the Report Bypass option programmed in MENU ) NEW End Of Exit Beep In Part Mode Added. In earlier versions, arming in Part Mode 1 or 2 would start the exit timer and count down display however unlike All On arming there was no audible indication. This release now includes an End Of Exit beep indication which will sound when the exit timer expires. To disable this function remove the exit warning option in MENU Beeper Options. 17) NEW Force Alarm On Zone Tamper Option Added. In previous versions, if the area was in the disarmed state and a zone tamper alarms was triggered, the system would report the tamper alarm to the control room and display on the keypad but would not trigger the sirens unless the area was armed. Version 1.10 includes a new Alarm On Tamper input option which when set will force the sirens to trigger regardless of whether or not the area is armed. See MENU Option 6 Alarm On Tamper. 4 Inputs > Global Input Options > Input Options MENU Tamper On Short N 2 Reserved N 3 Response Time 500ms N 4 Reserved N 5 Keyswitch Open/Close Y 6 Alarm On Tamper N 7 Reserved N 8 Reserved N This option only takes effect when the EOL value has been set to Alarm + Tamper monitoring in MENU 3-4-0, Option 11, 12 or 14, or for RF device tampers. 18) Sequential Handover And Bypassed Zones. In previous versions, if the sequential handover option has been selected in MENU and a zone which is in the entry path has been bypassed, the system would generate an alarm because the entry sequence was not sequential. To prevent this scenario from occurring Version 1.10 now excludes bypassed zones from the sequential handover list. 19) Output Timing Parameter Corrected. In earlier versions, outputs which were configured to run or operate for longer than 1 hour would fail to run for the programmed time period. V1.10 includes a correction to the timer function which now allows outputs to run for the programmed time period regardless of length. 20) Menu Text Changes And User Interface Improvements. The following changes have been made to improve clarity for all users. 1. MENU now reads View RF Device ID. 2. MENU 1-4-2,option 6 now reads Always Report Op/Cl. 3. MENU 7-7-0,option 5 now reads Cannot Change Own Pin. 4. The phrase ALLON in some menus has changed to ALL ON. 5. When an output went into a trouble condition, the keypad would display a System Trouble Alert Box and an Output Trouble Alert Box. This release no longer displays the System Trouble Alert Box for faulted outputs as it served no purpose. 21) NEW SMS Reporting To Pager Networks. A new transmission format has been added in this release to cater for SMS reporting to pager networks which do not implement parity such as Link Paging. See Transmission Type 14 - SMS NO PARITY. You should verify the required protocol for your pager company before implementing this option. 22) Area Senior Watch Alarm Reports. (Dead man Alarm) In earlier versions, if Senior Watch in MENU was enabled for an area and the Senior Watch Time Period in MENU was set to 0 (zero) the system could generate spurious dead man reports to the control room. This has been corrected in this release so that Senior Watch alarms will only be generated if the time period is set greater than 0 (zero). 23) Alarm On Exit Error Reporting Corrected. In earlier versions, no report was sent when an Alarm On Exit Error occured if the transmission format was set to Contact ID. SIA and other transmission formats where not effected. This has been corrected in V1.10 and the system now reports CID event 374 when an Alarm On Exit Error occurs. 24) User Duress Reports in SIA Format Corrected. In earlier versions User Duress reports were not being sent if the transmission type was set to SIA format. This has been corrected in V1.10 and the system now reports User Duress alarms when SIA transmission format is selected. Bosch Security Systems 3/07 FTR1.4

7 25) Output Polarity One Shot + Retrigger Corrected. In earlier versions, outputs programmed with a polarity type of One Shot + Retrigger did not operate correctly. The output failed to reset the one shot timer when the event retriggered which meant that output would operate at the specified one shot time rather than being reset for each retrigger. This has been corrected in V1.10 so that each retrigger causes the one shot timer to reset. 26) NEW Zone Trigger Delay Option Added. Version 1.10 includes a new Zone Trigger Delay option which can be used to delay or hold off the alarm for a period of time. This function can be used when monitoring pump alarms, temperature alarm and freezer alarms. This option can also be used to create a Door Open To Long input when implementing access control functionality. The zone delay option is selected under the pulse count option in MENU Option 13, 14 and 15 allow you to select the pulse delay in scale. Options are Seconds, Minutes or Hours. Once the scale is set you can then set the multiplier value under MENU See examples below. ZONE DEL AY TRIGGER EXAMPLES Configure Zone 3 with Delay of 3 minutes (180 seconds). 1. Program zone type etc as per normal. Then set Zone 3 to Pulse delay scale SECONDS in MENU 3-1-3, option Set the zone 3 delay multiplier in MENU to If zone 3 is triggered and it remains open for 180 seconds, then an alarm event will be triggered. If the zone re-seals within the 180 second period then the counter will reset and no alarm will be triggered. Configure Zone 10 with Delay of 1 hour (60 minutes). 1. Program zone type etc as per normal. Then set Zone 3 to Pulse delay scale HOURS in MENU 3-1-3, option Set the zone 3 delay multiplier in MENU to If zone 3 is triggered and it remains open for 1 hour, then an alarm event will be triggered. If the zone re-seals within the 1 hour period, the counter will reset and no alarm will be triggered. The trigger delay multiplier in MENU will always display the number and the word seconds. This is because this this option has a dual function. When setting zone delay you should ignore the word seconds and simply multiply the number by the scale option selected to calculate the actual delay time. 27) Alarm On Output Device Fail. In earlier versions, if the Alarm on Device Fail option in MENU was set and the system was disarmed when the device failure occured the system would send the report to the control room but would not trigger the sirens. This has been corrected in V1.10 release. Solution 64 28) User PIN Expire Option Enhanced. In earlier versions, the user expire option used a common timer for all users which was not practical. The V1.10 release includes a new option which allows you to set any user s pin to expire at specific time. MENU is used to set the Expire Date for each user. To activate the user expire function you also need to set the User Expire option in MENU User Options, PIN Expires for each user. The user expire date in MENU can be changed by master code user allowing them to extend or shorten the expire time if required. 29) NEW Arm All User Areas Via Prox Reader. In earlier versions, it was not possible to set a prox reader to Arm / Disarm all areas which a user belongs to with one presentation of their token. Version 1.10 includes a new reader option in MENU Option 8 called All User Areas. When set the option will cause the system to arm / disarm all areas which the token holder belongs to on a single token presentation. This option can be set per reader. Access > Prox Reader > Reader Options MENU All On Arming Allowed Y 2 Disarming Allowed Y 3 Enable Badging N 4 Zero Exit Time N 5 Part On Arming Allowed N 6 Arm If Single Area User N 7 Reserved N 8 All User Areas N 30) Roaming Keypad Prox Reader Operation Changed. In earlier versions, if a multi-area user presented their token to a roaming keypad reader, the system would disarm the first area which they belonged to and keep them logged on to the system. In Version 1.10 the operation has been changed so that multiarea users will only be logged on when presenting their token to a roaming keypad reader. Once logged on the user can hold down the All On or All Off keys to arm / disarm all areas they belong to or use the arrow keys to navigate to a specific area and then press the On/ Off key as required. 31) RAS Disconnect On Alarm Operation Changed. In earlier versions, if MENU option 3, Abort RAS on Alarm was enabled the panel would terminate the RAS programming session regardless of whether or not the session was a remote or a direct connection. In Version 1.10 this option has been changed and will now only terminate the programming session if it is a remote connection. A direct connection will remain connected. Bosch Security Systems 3/07 FTR1.4 5

8 32) NEW User RAS Security PIN Option Added. A new option has been added in this release to allow for an independant User connection to the panel using our Solution Link End User programming software. MENU 5-3-8, User RAS PIN option is defaulted to and is currently reserved for future use. In Version 1.10 the default event assigment for all outputs has been changed to 0. Outputs > Properties > Event Assignment MENU ) NEW Telephone Ring Count Analysis Changed. The way ring counting is analysed for the Australian ring tone has been changed in V1.10 to make it easy for new users to learn and simpler to use when establishing a remote connection. In earlier versions, the panel would count rings as follows, RING.. RING... RING.. RING would be counted as 1 ring. In V1.10 the panel will now count rings as follows, RING.. RING will be counted as 1 ring. Event Assignment Op Press 0-9 OK to SAVE 36) NEW Keypad Emergency Alarm Trigger s. Version 1.10 introduces a new method for triggering keypad Fire, Medical and Panic alarms. Occasionally you will hear half a ring at the moment the line is switched through to the premises. In this case the panel will count the rings as follows,.. RING...RING.. RING would be counted as 1 ring. 34) NEW Ring Count Default Changed. To allow for the changes in the ring count analysis in V1.10 the default ring count has been changed from 10 rings to 20 rings. The maximum number of rings which can be programmed has also been increased from 15 to 30 rings. Comms > Remote Access > Ring Count MENU = No Answer 20 1 to 30 = Answer Ring Count This menu sets the number of rings the panel will wait until answering an incoming call. Programming a zero will stop the panel from answering any incoming calls. Ring Count P Rings Press 0-9 OK to SAVE 35) Output Event Assignment Default Changed. The output event assignment option allows you to assign or map an Output event to an Area number (1 to 8), a User number (1 to 128), a Zone number (1 to 64) or a Group number (1 to 8) that the output will follow. Programming a zero will assign the output event to follow all areas, users, zones or access groups depending on the event type. Refer to Output Event Type Table in the Installation manual for a complete listing of available options. The new methods are easier for the end user to remember and also allow for labelling to be applied to the keypad further simplifying operation. At this time both old and new methods function.

9 Intrusion Control Panel Solution 64 Release Notes July, 2006 Release Notes for Version In the interest of ongoing product development and improvement, Bosch is proud to release software version for the Solution 64 Intrusion Control Panel. This document briefly outlines the improvements added in this release. Please read in conjunction with the current installation manual and other addendums for more detailed information. 1) Zone Status Indicator (Green LED) Function Corrected. Normally the Green Status indicator LED on the keypad will flash to indicate that a zone or zones are unsealled and would remain on steady when all zones are sealled. If however the zone is an RF Zone which has been programmed for pulse count and the zone remains open for longer than 10 seconds then the status indicator will continue to flash even if the zone reseals. This issue is only relevant if the Zone is an RF Zone and it has been programmed for pulse count. This has been corrected in V ) RF Zone Pulse Count Function Corrected. In previous versions any RF Zone programmed for pulse count which was left unsealled when the area was armed would cause an alarm to occur the next time the devices supervision signal was received by the panel (approximatly 10 minutes after arming). This has been corrected in V

11 Intrusion Control Panel Solution 64 Release Notes April, 2006 Release Notes for Version 1.05 In the interest of ongoing product development and improvement, Bosch is proud to release software version 1.05 for the Solution 64 Intrusion Control Panel. This document briefly outlines the numerous new features and improvements added in this release. Please read in conjunction with the current installation manual and other addendums for more detailed information. To coincide with this release, we are pleased to also announce that Version 1.03 of our Solution Link Upload/Download software is now available. Version 1.03 includes increased functionality, as well as support for the additional features in the V1.05 Solution 64 release. Support for Tamper Keypads added Installer Default Lockout Indication added User ID for Keyfob Panic and Low battery added Arming in Part Mode 1 and 2 Via Prox Readers Token Control Via Common Area Keypads 3) Telco Line Fail Reporting Corrected. In previous versions a telco line fail would be reported as a Contact ID event E351 with C001 instead of E351 with C891, where C891 represents panel number 1 in the base station template. The telco line restore reports correctly as event R351 with C891. This has now been corrected in V ) NEW Support Added For Tampered Keypads. Version 1.05 includes support for the recently released tampered keypads which are available with or without built in proximity readers. The Enable Rear Tamper option (MENU 6-1-4, Option 4) needs to be enabled for each tampered keypad fitted to the system. Devices > Keypads > General Options MENU Keypad Extinguish N 2 Greeting On Arm Y 3 Greeting On Disarm Y 4 Enable Rear Tamper N 5 PIN To Change Area N 6 Home Area Only N 7 Report Keypad Temperature Y 8 Display Area Indicators N The above options can be configured independantly for each keypad fitted to the system. 2) NEW Panel Default Lockout Indication. In earlier versions it was difficuilt to determine if panel defaulting had been disabled. When this option has been set via MENU 7-7-4, it is impossible to default the system without knowing the installer code. In this release, if the installer default function has been disabled then the panel will pulse or click the line seize relay 4 times during power up. If this occurs and the installer code is unknown you will need to return the panel to the place of purchase for defaulting. Charges may apply for this service. 4) NEW Keyfob Panic And Low Battery Reports By User In previous versions it was not possible to indiviually report RF keyfob panic alarms or low battery events per user. in V1.05, zones number 301 to 428 have been assigned to represent keyfob events for users 1 through to user 128. This feature now allows the panel to be used in portable duress alarm applications where positive user identification is required. Eg. A keyfob panic alarm triggered by user 26 will report as E120-GG-Zn326. See the Base Station Reporting template V1.04 or higher for more information. 5) NEW Token Control Via Common Area Keypads. In previous versions, if a user who belonged to only one area presented their token to a roaming prox keypad reader, the system would log them on and move the keypad to display the users area. To arm the area the user would need to swipe their token a second time. In this release a new option called Arm If Single Area User has been added to the Reader Options MENU When this option is set, a user who belongs to a single area only needs to present their token once to the keypad for the area to arm. This function only works via keypad readers and for users who only belong to one area. 6) Screen Saver Display Corrected. In previous versions the area armed, disarmed and part armed icons where not being displayed when the keypad was in screen saver mode. In V1.05 the icons are displayed correctly when in screen saver mode.

12 7) NEW Arming In Part Mode Via Prox Readers. In previous versions it was not possible to configure a reader to only allow arming in Part mode as the reader still required the Arming Allowed option to be enabled.

13 Intrusion Control Panel Solution 64 Release Notes February, 2006 Release Notes for Version In the interest of ongoing product development and improvement, Bosch is proud to release software version for the Solution 64 Intrusion Control Panel. This document briefly outlines the numerous new features and improvements added in this release. Please read in conjunction with the current installation manual and other addendums for more detailed information. To coincide with this release, we are pleased to also announce that Version 1.03 of our Solution Link Upload/Download software is now available. Version 1.03 includes increased functionality, as well as support for the additional features in the V Solution 64 release. Latching Chime Mode added Tone Bypass support for RAS Connection added Automatic Smoke Detector Reset added Installer Code can now be restricted per Keypad Various Panel Defaults Have been Improved Fire Zone Testing Improved AutoArm Multiple areas by Schedule Improved 3) NEW Latching Chime Zone Option Added. It is now possible to select Chime mode to latching on a per area basis. When this option is selected, if a chime zone is triggered then any outputs programmed for chime alarm and or the keypads sounder will trigger and remain on until a valid user code is entered. The keypad will display the zone which triggered the chime alarm. Areas > Commands > Chime Mode MENU ) NEW Automatic Smoke Sensor Reset Option Added. Version includes a new option which when set, will trigger any output that is programmed as event type 49 - Smoke Sensor GND to operate on the next arming cycle, therefore resetting the connected smoke sensors each time the area is armed. If this option is not set then a manual reset will need to be performed via MENU Areas > Properties > Input Options MENU Non Sequential Handover (Entry Path) Y 2 Pulse Count Handover Allowed Y 3 Senior Watch N 4 Reset Smoke on Arming Y 5 Reserved N 6 Reserved N 7 Reserved N 8 Reserved N 2) Keypad Quarantine In earlier versions, if the keypad lockout time was set to 000 seconds and the maximum number of code retries was exceeded, then the keypad siren would sound and the keypad would be quarantined indefinitely. In this release, if the keypad lockout time is set to 000, and the code retry count is exceeded, the keypad siren will sound but the keypad will not be quarantined. Entering a valid code will reset the keypad siren. The Chime Mode option allows you to program how chime zones will operate on an area by area basis. In latching mode a valid PIN will need to be entered to reset the chime alarm. Available options include; Chime Always Chime For 000 Seconds Chime After 000 Seconds Chime Latching 4) Swipe Token Text Changed In Version , the keypad now prompts with the words Present Token instead of Swipe Token when learning a Token or Card into the panel. 5) Keypad Back light Function Changed On previous releases, the keypad back light would occasionally not switch to full brightness when a user token was presented to the keypad reader. In this release the panel will send an awaken command to all keypads when the system is armed forcing the back light to return to full brightness. 6) Zone Status Display Improved The zone status command, MENU has been improved in version and now displays the zone condition as well as the measured EOL resistance value. 7) Call Diversion Function Changed In previous versions, if a call diversion string has been programmed, the panel would activate the call diversion when the panel was armed in either the Part On mode or All On mode. In this version, the call diversion will only activate when the panel is armed in the All On mode.

14 8) NEW Restrict Installer Access Per Keypad Option Added. In installations with multiple keypads, you may want to restrict the installer code access to one or a limited number of keypads. For example you may want to restrict installer access to only the keypad which is located in the communication room. To configure this option, select Installer PIN Not Allowed option for each required Keypad. See MENU 6-1-5, Option 7 below. 9) NEW Prevent PIN Arm/Disarm Per Keypad Option Added. Situations may arise where a keypad is required for access door control only. In this situation to prevent Arm/ Disarm control, set the PIN Arming Not Allowed option for each desired keypad. Valid user codes with the appropriate access level can still be used to operate the door strike from the keypad when this option is set. See MENU 6-1-5, Option 6 below. Devices > Keypads > Beeper Options MENU Trouble Alerts Y 2 Entry Warning Y 3 Exit Warning Y 4 Chime Tone Y 5 Display Temperature N 6 PIN Arming Not Allowed N 7 Installer PIN Not Allowed N 8 Show Alarm When Armed N The above options can be configured independently for each keypad fitted to the system. 10) Manual Output Control with Inverted Polarity In earlier versions, the keypad text prompts did not reflect the correct output polarity for outputs which are configured to be on in the normal state. For example Output 3 is defaulted to polarity type Low One Shot Open, which means that in the normal state the output is on. In version the text prompts now correctly follow the output polarity selected for each output. 11) NEW Zone Testing When Arming When arming, the panel will notify the user about any zones which are currently unsealed. At this point the user can abort the arming process and seal the offending zone, or they can force arm (if allowed) leaving the zone open in which case a trouble will be reported. In version , if the force arm prompt appears when arming, the user can press the ON key again, and the system will re-scan the zones. Any previously open zones that have re-sealed will not trigger the force arm prompt after the re scan. 12) First To Open Last To Close Option Corrected The first to open last to close option, (MENU 7-7-1) did not function correctly in previous versions. This has been corrected in this release and the system now sends a close report when all areas are armed, and an open report when the first area is disarmed. System > System Options > Area Options MENU Area 1 = Common Area N 2 First To Open Last To Close N 3 Reset Siren All Users ( All Areas) Y 4 Power Up In Same State As Powered Down Y 5 Fault Acknowledge All Areas Y 6 Delay Trouble Beeps Y 7 Reserved N 8 Reserved N (*** System Wide Parameter ***) 13) NEW Panel Default Changes A number of system defaults have been changed to better reflect the most commonly chosen options. See below. a) MENU Open Zone On Lost RF This option has been defaulted to NO because when and RF Zone fails it s supervision check, a report is automatically sent to the control room. Device > RF Devices > RF Device Options MENU Display RF Tamper Y 2 Report RF Tamper Y 3 Report RF Low Battery Y 4 Report Lost RF Device Y 5 Open Zone On Lost RF N 6 Audible Keyfob Panic Y 7 Report Keyfob Panic Y 8 Keyfob Function 1 Key = Part On Y b) MENU Alarm On Line Fail If Armed This option has been defaulted to YES because more often than not, if an intruder cuts the telco line you would want the sirens to sound. Comms > Properties > Phone Line Options MENU Display Telephone Line Fail Y 2 Report Telephone Line Fail Y 3 Alarm On Line Fail If Armed Y 4 Alarm On Line Fail If Disarmed N 5 Reserved N 6 Reserved N 7 Reserved N 8 Display Phone In Use N c) MENU Delay Trouble Beeps This option has been defaulted to YES based on customer feedback. When set to YES the system will prevent trouble beeps from the keypad between 10pm and 7am. Bosch Security Systems 2/06 FTR1.1

15 Should the trouble event still be in effect at 7am the keypad beeper will start to sound. At all times the trouble event will be displayed on the keypad and stored into the system log. d) MENU Reset Siren All Users This option has been defaulted to YES because in most cases in a partitioned system you would want all authorised users to be able to reset the sirens. System > System Options > Area Options MENU Area 1 = Common Area N 2 First To Open Last To Close N 3 Reset Siren All Users ( All Areas) Y 4 Power Up In Same State As Powered Down Y 5 Fault Acknowledge All Areas Y 6 Delay Trouble Beeps Y 7 Reserved N 8 Reserved N (*** System Wide Parameter ***) e) MENU Duress Allowed This option has been defaulted to YES as there is very little chance that a user would repeat the last two digits of their code by accident when disarming. Areas > Properties > General Options MENU Exit Time Restart N 2 Reset Alarm Memory On Disarm N 3 Duress Allowed Y 4 Acknowledge All Faults N 5 Single Button Arming - All On Y 6 Single Button Arming - Part On Y 7 Link To Common Area Y 8 Single Button Part Off N f) MENU Service Interval The default Service Interval has been changed to 000 weeks. This means that from default, no service reminder will be given. If you want to take advantage of this feature you will need to program the number of weeks to wait between reminders into this location. Areas > Area Testing > User Test Interval MENU (*** System Wide Parameter ***) DAYS 14) RF Keyfob Panic Operation Corrected In previous versions, triggering an RF Keyfob panic for any user assigned to any area other than area 1, would cause the system to loop on area 1, requiring a system power cycle to recover. This has been corrected in the release and the loop function now increments through all areas on the system. Users assigned to multiple areas are not effected provided they also have access to Area 1. 15) NEW Auto Arming All Areas In earlier versions, auto arming multiple areas required multiple schedules. In version it is now possible to arm all areas using just 1 schedule. To do this select the corresponding auto arm schedule and set it s index to 000. See MENU System > Schedules > Index MENU ) Recurring System Report Linked to Swinger Dialler Count. In previous versions, a recurring system trouble event would send a new report each time the event occurred, without any swinger dialler override. In V System Trouble events have been linked to the swinger dialler setting in MENU This means that a recurring system trouble event will only report until the swinger dialler count is reached and then it will be locked out. The event will reactivate the next time any area is armed or disarmed. System trouble events will only trigger the sirens, if applicable once per arming cycle. Comms > Dialler Reporting > Swinger Dialler MENU (*** System Wide Parameter ***) ) Display Output Status On Keypad Option Changed If the Display Output Status On Keypad option (MENU 4-1-5) has been selected, and the output in question is activated then a message will be displayed in the scroll bar. In previous versions, if you arm the panel while this massage is being displayed then the system will prompt you to force arm the output to complete the arming cycle. In the release, output status display messages are now filtered out and the panel will not consider these messages during the arming cycle. 18) PIN Always Required Option and Pop Up Boxes In Version , when the PIN Always Required option is selected, and a pop up message box is displayed, the system will prompt the user to Enter PIN + OK to acknowledge the message. In previous versions the system would prompt Press OK, however this would not acknowledge the message because no PIN had been entered. 0 Bosch Security Systems 2/06 FTR1.1 3

16 19) Turn Area On / Off Command Corrected In previous versions, the Turn Area On / Off option (MENU 2-0-1) does not filter the user to restrict them from controlling an area they don t belong to. In version the panel filters the user and only provides control for areas they are assigned to. A valid PIN is required in all cases. Areas > Commands > Turn Area On/Off -- MENU ) Domestic Reporting and Pulse Dialling In previous versions, if both the Domestic Reporting format and pulse dialling option have been selected, the system may not dial the complete phone number if it is longer than 6 digits. This is due to the amount of time it takes to dial in pulse format compared to DTMF dialling. All other reporting formats are not effected even if pulse dialling has been selected. In version , the internal dial process timer has been increased to 30 seconds which provides ample time to dial the number in pulse or decadic format. 21) Walk Testing Fire Zones In previous versions, placing a short across the EOL resistor to test a fire zone would not be accepted as a valid test and the zone would remain in the untested zone list. In version the walk testing function has been changed to allow a short across a fire zone EOL resistor to be accepted as a valid test. 23) NEW Tone Bypass Function Implemented It is often difficult to establish a remote connection to a panel if the customer picks up the phone or if a fax or answering machine answers the call before the panel does. While the ultimate solution to this problem is the use the CLI Intelliconnect method, this requires the customer to enable CLI via their telco provider. When enabled, the new Tone Bypass option (MENU 5-3-4) tells the panel to listen to every answered call and to look for a specific sequence of DTMF tones. The tone sequence will be sent by the remote programming software and when the panel recognises them, it will immediately seize the line away from the answering party and the programming session will commence. The feature requires Solution Link remote programming software version 1.03 or higher. Comms > Remote Access > Solution Link RAS Options MENU RAS Allowed Y 2 Call Back Verification Required N 3 Terminate RAS on Alarm Y 4 Answer Bypass Y 5 Answer Incoming Call Only If Armed N 6 Tone Bypass Y 7 Allow User Functions Via Remote Access Software Y 8 Report / Log RAS Start / End Sessions Y 22) RF Keyfob Panic Alarm Reporting In earlier version, panic alarms trigger via RF keyfobs would follow the status route when reporting the alarm. In domestic dialling mode, the status route would typically be disabled and this would prevent the keyfob panic for being transmitted. In version the reporting route for keyfob panic alarms has been changed to the Emergency route which would not normally be disabled when using domestic dialling. The following options are included in this release however their functionality has been disabled as they are for future use. Please ignore the following options in this release.
